IPC: B65H20/24
Filed: 1997-09-04
Abstract: A device for the inspection and repair of a roll of web material includes an
unwind mandrel, a rewind mandrel, an inspection area and a splice area. A flaw in
the web is detected at the inspection area, whereupon the web is braked to a halt.
Where the splicc area is adjacent to or coincident with the inspection area, the flawed
portion of the web can pass well beyond the splice area before the web comes to a
halt. Provided herein is a web-indexer device that includes a reciprocating indexer
shuttle having idler rolls mounted thereon, with further idler rolls mounted to the
machine such that the web material can be strung between them in a substantially
boustrophedonic configuration. Control means are provided to allow the operator
who has caused the web to be braked to a halt upon detecting a flaw, to move the
indexer frame so as to retrieve a portion of the web so as to bring the flaw back to
the splicing station for repair, without having to reverse the rotational direction of the
unwind mandrel or the rewind mandrel.

Abstract: A fault-tolerant memory device provided with a variable domain redundancy
replacement (VDRR) arrangement is described. The memory device includes: a
plurality of primary memory arrays; a plurality of domains having at least portions
of one domain common to another domain to form an overlapped domain area,
and at least one of the domains overlapping portions of at least two of the primary
memory arrays; redundancy units, coupled to each of the domains, for replacing
faults contained within each of the domains; control circuitry for directing at least
one of the faults within one of the domains to be replaced with the redundancy
units, wherein at least one other fault of the one domain is replaced by the
redundancy unit coupled to another of the domains, if the at least one other fault is
positioned within the overlapped domain area. Each redundancy unit supporting
the primary memory arrays includes a plurality of redundant elements. Unlike the
conventional fixed domain redundancy replacement scheme, RUs are assigned to

Abstract: A mechanical press has a ram carried by a frame and movable to advanced
and retracted positions by a ball screw assembly driven by a reversible motor to actuate
a cam and follower assembly connected to the ram by a linkage system. The linkage
system has a pair of pivot links pivotally connected at one end to a fixed pivot shaft
connected to the press frame and connected at their opposite end to a follower nut for
movement thereby as the follower nut travels along the length of the driven screw. A pair
of roller followers are also driven by the follower nut to move between first and second
positions within cam tracks formed in a pair of first lever arms operably connected to the
ram. In use, when the motor drives the screw in one direction the first lever arms are
rotated in one direction to move the ram to its advanced position wherein the ram urges
a die or tool into engagement with a workpiece. When the motor is reversed, the first
lever arm is rotated in the opposite direction to move the ram to its retracted position to
disengage the die or tool from the workpiece.

chain stitch yarns (F). Respective needle loops of the
respective fixing chain stitch yarns (F) push respective element
leg portions of the successive fastener element row (ER) from

Abstract: A method for the recording and reproduction of

additional information item, e.g. a title information
item, is additionally recorded, which information item
serves for subsequent insertion into a video picture

producing an executable sub-picture unit (SPU), which is
recorded in a corresponding sub-picture data pack
(SP_PCK) in addition to the data packs for the
video/audio signal (V_PCK, A_PCK). Thus, it is possible
to record the additional information data separately
without difficulty without necessitating a change to the
recording format to the effect that special data packs
for the additional information items are included in the
planning.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method for fitting a tubular roll
mantle of a roll intended for a paper machine or equivalent
with glide bearings. In the method the roll mantle (12) is
supported on a stationary roll axle (11) by means of
hydraulic glide bearing elements (14, 14a, 15, 16, 16a)
acting upon the rill mantle (12) or upon the rill ends (13,
13a), said bearing elements being loaded hydraulically by
means of the pressure of a pressure medium. In the invention,
the roll mantle (12) is supported on the roll axle (11) by
means of glide bearing elements (14, 14a) acting radially in
opposite directions. In the principal loading direction, the
roll mantle (12) is allowed to be shifted over a certain
distance, in which case, when the roll mantle (12) approaches
its preset extreme position in this direction, the movement
of the roll mantle (12) is braked down, and finally the
movement is stopped in its extreme position by means of the
glide bearing elements (14, 14a). The invention also concerns
a roll that makes use of the method.
